Dyann Woody Releases Debut Solo Album My Softer Side 
Blog Entry
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Nashville, TN--October 3, 2005--Who knew that this country singer was really a closet chanteuse? Dyann Woody makes a seamless transition from 'Yee Haw' to 'Ooh La La'. She not only has the voice of an angelic siren, but what will amaze you even more is just how easy and pleasing her music is to listen to. She reaches across many genres and meshes elements of '70's singer/songwriter style, jazz, blues and pop with the art of a well-crafted lyric.

Although this is Dyann's first solo album, she has shared musical success with her husband as part of the Country Music Group, The Woodys. Their debut album on Rounder Records went #1 on the Americana charts; they were voted the Top County Vocal Duo at the International Music News Awards and have received worldwide critical acclaim for all three of their albums. However, there was still a part of Dyann that was musically unfulfilled. She wanted to write songs that expressed all of the emotions and experiences that she and other women h

Jess Harlen Releases Debut Album Beat Broker
News Item
Release date: March 5 2010

Record label: Plethora Records

Harnessing her lyrical introspection, distinctive songwriting and fusing it with renowned Mercury Prize winning producer Plutonic Lab, Jess Harlen reveals her remarkable debut album 'Neon Heartache'. The record embarks upon unchartered territory of soul music, drawing on subtle hip hop beats, reggae rhythms and moments reminiscent of Motown.

Described by Rave Magazine as "what real soul is meant to be - from the soul, not from the formula", Neon Heartache's lead single, 'Watch the Water' combines the grace of acoustic melodies with dynamic rhythm while effortlessly offering up picturesque ocean imagery. It is a beautiful contrast to the track 'Diamond', a crackling gritty bass-driven blues number backed by midnight reflection and heartbeat tempos.

The second single 'I Go' is the album's most ethereal moment. Against a backdrop of shimmering harmonics, Harlen's earthly tones dance along a glistening undercurrent. The atmosphere is comple

Bethany & Rufus Roots Quartet "Live A Fip" CD Debuts In Euro MusicDish
News Item
New World/Folk/Roots duo Bethany & Rufus along with Fulani flutist Yacouba Moumouni and Afro Haitian drummer 'Bonga' Jean-Baptiste will release a new CD, entitled "Live A Fip" on October 22, 2009. The Bethany & Rufus Roots Quartet "Live A Fip" CD features 12 tracks, and will debut in Europe on the Daqui Records label.

The "Live A Fip" CD release was a natural extension of Bethany & Rufus' collaborations with Jean-Baptiste and Moumouni. Bethany & Rufus, who share the same label with Moumouni, also shared the stage with him for one song during the 10th anniversary celebration of Daqui Records. They knew instantly that their political beliefs and musical chemistry would bond them together, catapulting them forward with continued performances. The trio became a quartet when 'Bonga' Jean-Baptiste was invited to perform with them the following summer at Les Nuits Atypique. During a promotional radio spot for the festival on Radio France in March 2009, the quartet was asked to perform live on the Live A Fip radio

Rodney Crowell - Sex & Gasoline (2009) Music Emissions Alternative Music Reviews
Syndicated
Rodney Crowell hit the big time withn 1988's "Diamonds and Dirt," which had five number one Country singles. Originally part of Emmylou Harris' Hot Band, Crowell gathers together some hot session players and producer Joe Henry for his fourth record. "Sex & Gasoline" is an acoustic, bluesy record that showcases Crowell's jaundiced but romatic lyrics (ie: "I don't mind growing old/as long as I can still laugh).The title track, "Moving work of art," "Truth Decay," "I want you # 35", and "I've done everything I can" are the best songs, and all are built on the same kind of ruminative, spare country guitar, a few blues licks, some high lonesome Western strings, and that solid, wise writing. The poignant "The night's just right" and "Forty Winters" show more regreat that the other tracks, but they still shine with that hard-won hope that makes this a great record.There are only a few stumbles here. "The rise and fall of intelligent design" and "Funky and the Farm-Boy" ring hollow, a bit pedestrian, with perfuncto

Various Artists - Putumayo Presents Jazz Around The World ( Music Emissions Alternative Music Reviews
Syndicated
There can't be a more literal title in the Putumayo catalog. Jazz Around The World is literally a presentation of various jazz stylings from around the world, though without the usual solid context that Putumayo is known for in its collections. While most of the tracks chosen are solid-and some relvelatory-there is an arbitrary feel to it as well. I guess there would have to be: with the whole world available for inclusion, how do you choose?Some familiar names are here, like Billy Cobham, Kora Jazz Trio, Quebecois cabaret singer Chantal Chamberland. For the most part the set focuses on Latin and Adro-Cuban rhythms, which have been a vital part of world music, and often some of the best music period, of the last fortry years, the styles have always had an awkward releationship to jazz, however, at least American jazz, which has tended to water those genres down into either a tepid fusion or Supper Club exotica. That problem is present here; even when the music presented is by artists from those regions, the c

A 12 bar blues swing, Just jamming. It was fun playing 3 guitar solos, but not that fun listening to a dozen solo verses after each other, so I switched between the track an let a jambone and Pearl have a solo spot. I plugged Pearl through Melodyne to control her pitches, now if I could control what she was saying I would be elected honorary member of the Frankenstein society.

This is a continuation of my tune University Hospital Blues and that should pretty much tell the story behind it.
